Willem Vleeschouwer felt validated as a comic artist after he received a signed drawing from Franquin just a few months before Franquin's death, in reply to Vleeschouwer's interest in his work. Vleeschouwer published 'De Wonderbaarlijke Reis van Jacobus Maneschijn en Sientje Zeester', written by Willem Wilmink; 'Duppie en de ZZ-sekte' with Gerard van Santen; 'Duppie en het Doorbroken Isolement' and the series 'Flip Vla en Pintie Prima', which appeared in music magazine Oor. His work is also featured in girl's magazine Club 'Puck'. His work is collected in 'Plenty Plaatjes' and 'De Wraak van de Dikke Ong'. The second part of this comic, 'Stront aan de Knikker', appeared in June 2001 and was presented with an exhibition in Galerie Lambiek. Pages of this comic can be seen on Vleeschouwer's virtual exhibition on this site.
